A landmark work in Asian political history, Free India in Asia presents a rigorous analysis of India's foreign policy and its evolving role in the Asian geopolitical landscape following independence. Werner Levi chronicles India's complex relationships with its neighbours and the broader Asian community, arguing that the nation's ideological foundations and historical experience shaped a unique diplomatic identity. With scholarly authority, Levi details the tensions between India's non-alignment principles and the practical demands of Cold War-era power politics, illustrating how the subcontinent sought to position itself as a moral and political force in the region. The work remains an incisive and enduring study of post-colonial statehood and international relations in mid-twentieth century Asia.
